Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the moderating effect of optimistic perception bias in the relationship between motor behavior intention and self-efficacy in adults. The subjects were 552 adults using the S-gu sports and cultural center, and questionnaires on motor behavior intention, physical self-efficacy, motor behavior and optimism were used. As statistical analysis methods, frequency analysis, correlation analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis were performed. The motor behavior intention of adults was found to have a statistically significant effect on motor behavior, and it was confirmed that there was a moderating effect of optimistic perception bias in the process of influencing motor intention and motor behavior. Also, self-efficacy was found to affect motor behavior, and in the process of self-efficacy affecting motor behavior, there was no moderating effect of optimistic perception bias. Based on these results, it is possible to propose a psychological support customized program including optimistic perception bias as a psychological intervention strategy when developing a program for health promotion of adults.
